Phoenix police shoot suspect following robbery

PHOENIX -- A Phoenix police officer shot a robbery suspect in the face after he tried to reach for the officer's gun.

It started early Saturday when three people allegedly stole alcohol, cigarettes and doughnuts from a convenience store and then drove away in a minivan. They headed down an alley before driving through a fence and then fleeing on foot.
